Default family vs. family, the rematch

Whoo-hoo!

Bwon, the Master of Fire and Ice, the God of Earth and Sky, wishes to let it be known that all humans, large and small, near and far, should begin practicing the rituals of meditation, ancestor worship, and Bwon-love. The more you have perfected these arts, the easier you will find life in the new millennium.

Also, worshipping Squall is equally acceptable, although one should still meditate daily.

Oops -- I made my pretender with conceptp 2.00 instead of 2.01. Will this result in any harm?
Yeah, I did the same thing. Also, we received the Marignon turn file instead of the Mictlan file.

Doh! Did you look at it before you realized? Because that would give away the location of Marignon's home province.

That was indeed a pretty annoying screw-up (I send the correct file as soon as Panther told me about the problem, but...). More than the starting province, what concerns me is Panther knowing what sort of Pretender Marignon picked (if he looked at the turn that is).

Apologies for that blunder (I did check, but it looks like I confused Marignon and Mictlan).

Um... now we have the T'ien Ch'i turn file instead of the R'lyeh one... and the problem is I opened it up before I realized that Panther wasn't playing T'ien Ch'i this game...

Too bad! :-/

Maybe we could proceed by allowing everyone to look at everyone else's turn 1 .trn file.

That, or we all have to go back to the drawing board and invent complete new gods. Which is kind of fun ...

:-)

Anyway, allowing everyone to see everyone else's first .trn file seems fair to me, unless some of us had a design that relied more upon the element of surprise than other people's designs.

Whatever you guys want is fine with me.

I understand, at least. I made the mistake of copying the second zip file instead of creating it anew, so the contents of the zip file were copied as well. I am not sure why, but putting the new files in it doesn't appear to have worked.

Please let me know what you would like to do, and how many times I should be flailed to make up for that blunder.

Default Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim

I did not open anything as yet (and still have not). So I have no idea of anybody's pretenders. I don't much care what we do, though I think re-randomizing the start locations would be a good idea if anybody saw any starting position.

Heck, I am still trying to figure out how to get the 2.01 instead of the 2.0 pretender model. It was not even on Zen's site...

Edit - I found the proper mod and now installed it. In an interesting twist of events, I now have initial turn files for 3 races, none of which is mine! I did not open anything and am awaiting instructions on what we want to do. I am fixing to meet Tauren for lunch and will ask if he viewed anything for TC when he accidently opened the wrong player.

Well, I wasn't paying much attention. All I remember was that you had some kind of large humanoid god, like a titan or son of the sun or something, but I didnt actually look at him. I did, however, pay attention to the starting spot. So maybe we could just re-randomize the start locations, and I could tell you my God's chasis, and we can call it good.
